Okay, so you're an anti-Darwinist:

Which "Intelligent Design" alternative do you want the public schools to teach?

Then, the cow licked the god Bor and his wife into being. The couple gave birth to Buri, who fathered three sons, Odin, Vili, and Vé. The sons rose up and killed Ymir and from his corpse created from his flesh, the Earth; the mountains from his bones, trees with his hair and rivers, and the seas and lakes with his blood. Within Ymir’s hollowed-out skull, the gods created the starry heavens. What can we say: Pure metal magic!!

LOL. That's good stuff.

Intelligent Designs (or Creation Myths)

That says it ALL. the key word...MYTHS. Now back to reality

And in seven days, God created the Heavens and Earth, nuf said period !

The problem with this is that it relies on the belief that you choose to believe and not on an unbiased evaluation.

This is not to say that other views are not based on other belief systems. Just that teaching based on something that is based on this is not a good idea.

If individual parents choose to teach their children this, I am not one to stop them. But, forcing this view on everyone is plain wrong.

What we should be doing is teaching them how to evaluate things and make informed, intelligent decisions for themselves.

Public Schools can't be run in accord with the Consitution, so it's really a mute point.
